Norgren C0Q511228 Pneufit C Push-in Fitting - 12mm, R1/4
Part Number: C0Q511228
Quick Summary
Pneufit C Push-in fitting is a ready-to-use connector that speeds assembly in compressed air systems. Engineers often contend with slow, tool-dependent fittings that increase downtime and risk leaks. This model uses a releasable stainless-steel grab-ring, a PBT body, and silicone-free NBR seals to deliver quick, tool-free connections while maintaining robust contamination resistance. It operates across a wide temperature range from -20 to 60 °C (-4 to 140 °F) and tolerates harsh industrial environments thanks to nickel-plated brass components. While specific regional certifications aren’t listed in the data, the design supports reliable, compliant installations in automation applications, especially where 12 mm O/D lines and R1/4 threads are standard. In practice, this yields faster commissioning, lower maintenance, and consistent airflow control in control panels and pneumatic manifolds.

Tool-free push-in connection with a releasable stainless-steel grab-ring reduces installation time and minimizes rework on crowded panels. The rapid engagement eliminates needle-nose pliers and torque concerns, while the grab-ring maintains a secure seal even in vibration. Use in automated assembly lines and pneumatic manifolds where quick field changes are common, and where maintenance windows are short. Nickel-plated brass components provide corrosion and contamination resistance, extending service life in challenging environments. Silicone-free NBR seals prevent silicone contamination in clean-air paths, helping maintain sensor accuracy and valve reliability. The durable seals resist compression set under cycling, delivering consistent performance even after many connect/disconnect events. This combination supports longer intervals between maintenance and predictable process stability across multiple stations. The stainless-steel grab-ring securely grips nylon or polyurethane tubes (85 or 95 durometer), while the 12 mm O/D tube and R1/4 thread support standard line sizing. The joint is compatible with common piping geometries, and the double swivel elbow enables flexible routing around tight corners. This design reduces the need for additional fittings, lowers inventory requirements, and simplifies installation in compact automation cabinets. Immediate quality sealing is achieved with a silicone-free U-packing, delivering reliable airtight connections with minimal leakage under pressure cycling. The flush seating reduces the risk of contamination and pressure drop, improving overall pneumatic efficiency. In high-demand environments like packaging or robotics cells, this translates to steadier actuation and reduced energy costs over the system lifecycle. Dimensions are compact (63 mm length, 42.8 mm width, 20.5 mm height) and weight is 0.075 kg, making installation on dense manifolds straightforward. The combined push-in ease, small form-factor, and corrosion-resistant materials help engineers meet tight space constraints without sacrificing performance or durability. Plus, the option to mount as a low-maintenance manifold block aligns with lean manufacturing and uptime targets.

FAQs
To install, cut the tube square, insert until seated, and ensure the grab-ring engages the tube. The C0Q511228 uses a push-in mechanism with a releasable grab-ring, so no tools are required. It accepts 12 mm O/D nylon or polyurethane tubes and comes with an R1/4 thread; release by pulling the collet back and remove when needed. Tight routing with the double swivel elbow is supported to accommodate panel layouts.
Operating temperature ranges from -20 to 60 °C (-4 to 140 °F). The body is made of plastic PBT with nickel-plated brass components for corrosion resistance, and seals are NBR that are silicone-free. The assembly accommodates 12 mm O/D tubes and R1/4 threads, delivering reliable performance under typical factory air pressures and cycling conditions.
Yes. Its compact form factor (63 mm long, 42.8 mm wide, 20.5 mm high) and light weight (0.075 kg) suit dense manifold layouts. The double swivel elbow and tool-free engagement support flexible routing and rapid field changes in automation cells, packaging lines, and other automated pneumatic circuits requiring quick connectivity with minimal downtime.
The provided data does not list specific certifications. Users should verify regional compliance (such as CE or other local approvals) with the supplier. Materials include a PBT body and silicone-free NBR seals, with corrosion-resistant nickel-plated brass components, and a South Korea origin, which can aid in supplier qualification and traceability.
Tool-free installation reduces commissioning time and maintenance downtime. The silicone-free seals minimize contamination risks, while corrosion-resistant materials extend service life in harsh environments. The combination yields lower lifecycle costs through fewer leak events, predictable performance, and longer intervals between servicing in high-demand automation environments.
